Wu Xiaode was on the run.
The ground shook, and Magic fell like shooting stars, continuously bombarding the area he had just dashed past.
The puppets were in hot pursuit!
——Originally, Wu Xiaode had already evaded them.
But Little Bone received a call from an unknown number that subtly reminded it that such evasion wasn't "convincing" enough; a true escape required a chase and a "big scene" involving hunting and killing to make the plot seem "full" and believable.
Below the number was a line of fine print:
"——From a tree spirit at Ning Shen Temple who wishes to remain anonymous."
Wu Xiaode had no choice but to reveal himself from the mist.
The puppets attacked in mid-air while he fled on the ground, occasionally getting hit.
Of course.
All this was to make the event seem more "real."
Wu Xiaode even sustained some real injuries.
These fairies meant business!
